In My Mailbox-New Books This Week (32)

In My Mailbox is a posting idea run by Kristi at The Story Siren (read all about it here: In My Mailbox)
for bloggers to share the books they've gotten that
week to help publicize as many titles as possible. It's a
little preview on what book reviews to anticipate along with
a way to build excitement about new titles coming out.
All titles link to goodreads so you can add books to your
"to-read" list.

THE NEAR WITCH by Victoria Schwab Won from Buried in Books' Ash to Nash GiveawayHeard a lot of good things about this one, so I'm looking forward to reading it.

I loved Simone Elkeles Perfect Chemistry and Rules of Attraction so I CANNOT wait to read Chain Reaction! Get all those boys settled down! If you look at her Facebook page you can see the models she used for the trailers for the books. CUTE!
